    No they won't as their region encoded. You'll either need to find a disc loader than can bypass this or you'll need to get the console chipped to bypass the region lockout.

    As far as i know, The US uses a different encoding, NTSC or something like that, Europe uses PAL. Hope that helps :)

    The different type of video systems we use has absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with it. Just to be pedantic not all of Europe uses PAL either... for instance france use SECAM.
